Everyday Economics: Prosperity and Trade

The first four of a series of short videos on prosperity and trade are now out (featuring moi)[2]. These videos are part of MRUniversity’s “Everyday Economics” program. The first of the four is just below. I thank MRUniversity’s Roman Hardgrave (a former student of mine, I’m proud to boast), my colleagues at the Mercatus Center, the talented production team at Tilapia, and MRUniversity founders Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok for the honor of allowing me to participate in such a wonderful project. (Astute viewers will notice in this video the uncanny resemblance between Alex and the cargo-ship captain.)
